ASHES - MARK FORMER SITE OF TWO TOWNS [Continued from First Page] cows and other livestock in Bau- dette and Spooner, were for the most part destroyed but quite a herd of animals instinctively sought refuge behind the mill in Spooner and they were not burned. The Rat Portage lumber mill, equipped with a double band saw and a twin circular saw and gang saw and other mod- ern machinery was destroyed, to- gether with a vast area of finished lumber. All of Rainy River had not burned when I left there but the property loss in that village will also be great. I left Rainy River at 4 p. m, Saturday for Fort Francis.” ¢“The road backed trains in and men went along shouting ‘All aboard for Fort Francis, Inter- national Falls, Bemidji, Duluth or Virginia. All fares free.’ Many persons got on the train who did not know what their des- tination would be.” “The property loss in Baudette and Spooner is especially heavy to business men because of the limited insurance which the companies per- mit to be accepted in those places. “Of the sixty persons who have come to Bemidji without exception they escaped with only the clothes they have on their back and in some cases, not even that. “In my own case I not only lost my house, barn, livestock, all of my household furnishings and clothes, but unfortunately the pair of trousers I grabbed when we made our getaway was not the pair as I thought they were which contained my wallet, and as a result I lost $25 in bills.” Ole Ungstad, an employe of the lumber mill at Baudette also had his home destroyed. He is one of the refuges who arrived in Bemidji this morning. He says: “'We had a terrible experience with the fire,. My wife is in a delicate condition. When the flames ap- proached we made for the depot, which is some distance from our house, but had not gone far when my wife was overcome by fear and ‘I can’t go any farther. We are all lost. We are all going to be burned.’ I cheered ber up the best I could and we managed to make the depot, where we found hundreds of psrsons waiting for re- lief, with the flames closing in around us. *‘An engine with one coach came down the track with the engine whistling for us to get off the track, but the people were so frightened and determined not to die by the flames thas they simply blocked -the track and the engineer had to stop. The coach was already filled but the frantic people broke open the door and they jammed into thatcoach something awful, hanging onto the steps and some men even climbing on top. «This coach finally was pulled out and they collected all the box cars on the siding and ran them to the depot. There . were, I should say, about fifty box cars altogether. Everybody climbed on them, who could and they pull- ed us over to Rainy River, where they left usin the yards all night without anything to eat, Satur- day morning they took us back to Baudette and it was a sad mission for all our homes had been des- troyed.” The relief train which left Bemidji at 3 o’clock Sunday afternoon, carry- ing the Bemidji company of militia and a box car filled with provisions arrived at International Falls at mid- night and this morning proceeded to the fire zone, where the supplies are today being distributed. exclaiming: of Success. are jostled.

NEW GOVERNMENT ACTIVE Begins Putting Into Practice the Prin. ciples for Which' It Fought, Whieh Include Separation of State and Church—Another Officlal Deoree Banishes the Entire Royal Family From the Country. Lisbon, Oct. 10.—Provisjénal Presi- dent Braga and his assoclates, every day feeling more secure in their news ly assumed authority, a;’é drawing tighter the reins of government and began actively to put into practice the principles for which they have stood and which they have promised shall be bulwarks of the mew republic. It is apparent that no time is to be lost, not only because of the necessity of meeting popular expectations at home, but as well for the moral ef- fect upon other nations, the recogni- tion of which is anxiously sought. The first step was the publication of -an official decree ordering all re- ligious bodies in Portugal to leave the country within twenty-four hours. The government had promised the separation of the churcu and the state and the suppression of the religious orders. Almyst at the moment that the decree appeared Marquis de Pom- bal, was placed under arrest charged | with having. concealed arms in. his house. Troops were stationed in the vicinity of the religious establishments to prevent attacks upon them by .mobs. ! Dr. Alfonso Costa, the minister ot justice, also issued a decree ordering the release of all persons detained by the monarch on the charge of belong- ing to secret societies. This is in ful- fillment of the projected policy of po- litical freedom. 4 Dr. Costa visited the camps of the republican soldiers and personally con- gratulated those who had “especially distinguished themselves in the recent fighting. 1 ROYAL FAMILY IS EXILED New Government of Portugal Decree to That Effect. Lisbon, Oct. 10.—The republic ot Portugal has formally proclaimed the exile of King Manuel, Queen Mother Amelie, the Duke of Oporto. and Dowager Queen Maria Pia. The new government continues its active preparations against a resump- tion of histilities by the royalists. President Braga declares that the reports from the provinces, where the monarchial spirit is supposed to be the strongest, gave the utmost en- couragement to the new ministry and that there is-little chance of a royal- ist movement against the capital. The expulsion of certain Catholics is to be pushed with the greatest vigor. In the belief that many of the monas- teries and convents are storehouses ot great wealth that should be appro- priated by the government, many of these institutions’ are being searched and their valuables taken. IS A VICTORY FOR EDUCATION Portugal’s President Discusses Source of Revolution. Paris, Oct. 10.—Theophile Braga, the provisional president of Portugal, in an interview with Matin’s Lisbon correspondent, emphasizes what he calls the “philosophical” source of the revolution. The men who -havé been spreading the doctrines of republican- ism, he says, are professors, mathe- maticians, writers and men of learn- ing. The result, he thinks, is first of all a victory for the cause of “educa- tion”"—an effort to restore the Portu- guese people to the intellectual rank Tost for so long a time. “It is our aim,” he sald, “to show the Portuguese as a race of the elite, both physically and intellectually. -It 18 our- greatest honor by an admirable revolution to demonstrate to the world that the Portuguese are worthy ‘of their ancestors.” SEVERAL MONKS ARE KILLED Revolutionists Use Artillefy Monastery. gaiiot 'Lisbon, Oct. 10.—One of the worst |~ conflicts since the initial outbreak oc- curred between the revolutionists and ‘the defenders of the -Quelhos monas- tery, the latter being captured after a heayy.artillery fire in which several monks were killed. The ght, according to'the most 4u- thentic reports, was started by the monks, who attacked & party of pass: ing revolutisnists in revenge for the bombardment - of ‘the monastery on ‘Wednesday. - Acquitted p[Murdof Charge. Portage, Wis., Oct. 10.—The trial of Dr. William Hecker of Watseka, Ill, charged with being responsible for the drowning of his wife at Fox lake about six weeks ago, was concluded by the’dismissal of the case by Jus- tice O’Connell on' the ground of.insut- ficient evidence to sustain the accusa- tion. No testimony was offered by the defense. CIGARETTE FIRST REQUEST Man Found by Track Holding Severed Leg in Each Hand. X Youngstown, O., Oct. 10.—Holding a severed leg in each hand a-man was found by a freight train crew sitting by the railway tracks near Lowell- ville. S “Say, boys, give me a cigarette,” he said calmly to the trainmen. “It's been hours since ¥ had a smoke. I'll tell you how this happened in a mo- ment.” Blood was streaming’ from the stumps, but he appeared little per- turbed as he explained that he had been stealing a ride and had fe'len beneath the wheels.
